Have you ever experienced that overwhelming fatigue pushing you to consider ordering in instead of cooking? If so, here’s a fantastic and easy recipe designed to rescue you from spending extra money on takeout. Enter Curd Rice, a beloved go-to of mine for satisfying cravings in a flash.
Ingredients
- 1 Cup of Cooked Rice
- 1 Cup of Greek Yogurt
- 1 Tsp of Mustard Seeds
- 1 Tsp of Cumin Seeds
- 1 Tbsp of Butter
- 1 Chipotle Chili Pepper
- Fresh Cilantro (for garnish)
Begin by preparing 1 cup of cooked rice, which you can easily achieve with a Rice Cooker or a quick spin in the Microwave. Once your rice is ready, blend it with the creamy Greek yogurt and set it aside. Heat a pan, and as it warms up, introduce a tablespoon of butter. Allow the mustard seeds to sizzle and pop upon contact with the pan’s heat. Stir in the cumin seeds, ensuring they release their aromatic essence. After about a minute, introduce the Chipotle Chili pepper to the mix, cooking it for an additional minute. Safely remove the pan from the heat source, transferring this spice-infused concoction onto the waiting yogurt and rice blend. Thoroughly combine the ingredients, and for a final touch, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro. Give this recipe a whirl and your wallet and taste buds will thank you!
